Hi guys, this is something Ive found Fidelin with my htc powered by the liberty rom which is running android 4.4.2,
to start with I do not take any responsability for what happens to your device, everything you do is all on your own risk.,
Also Im not the creator of the Device faker app, all im doing is showing something I found and want to share it with the rest of the world (this was only yet tested on the liberty rom however if anone wants to test on other sense roms so feel free to help and submit your results)
For this MOD you obviously need to be rooted ,
you also want to have xposed installed and fully running.
Now what you have to do is to download this module (Device Faker) for the xposed framework,
after youve downloaded it install it like every non google play store app (or your can download this through the xposed app or theplay store)
than go to xposed enable the module and reboot,
after your htc has sucessfuly booted, open the device faker app from there your gonna click on the drop down list where it says "nexus 7" on that list you will find verious phones but what we are loooking for is "htc one" once you have selected "htc one" from the list click apply on the bottom of the application than once again reboot your htc,
now all you have to do is to go to the play store and update your htc sence or download the cool apps from htc that you dont yet have,
ENJOY!
Anybody tested this to see if it works?

I have a phone, Thl W1 ICS that does not have Play Store installed. Is it possible to install Play Store. I have been trying for a week and the closest I can get is a Server Error screen. If it's not possible lesson learnt, if it can be done could someone tell me how. This is my first Android device so knowledge is limited. Thanks either way Mike
Yes, but you will have to modify your build.prop so it identifies as a supported android device. Find a supported/official android device that has the closest spec to your phone. Also, you will need the google framework (you might as well just flash the ICS gapps from CM, they will work on AOSP roms also)
Yeah, just search the forums. I believe the thread on how to do this is in the Devlopment forums.
Would like to give flashing gapps a try but every post I've read requires Clockwordmod but without play store I am unable to get it as every download site refers back to play store

Many apps dont seem to care as my HP Touchpad shows up with the name cm_tenderloin on Google Play since its unofficial. Its only some games that flag as incompatible. I imagine most other apps just care about Android OS version and processor instruction set (ARM11, ARMv7).

You can try alternative android market's like 1mobile market that might help you find something to help you install the play store

Thanks, Managed to get Android Market 3.4.4 working. I then tried to update to Playstore but it wouldn't load, just sat there with a spinning circle saying loading. But I'm happy as it still doe's what I require.

Two questions:
1. If you have an AT&T One X, please go to Settings > Apps
Then choose the "All" column
Then scroll down alphabetically
For the app "Package installer" What version number do you see?
2. Yesterday I factory reset the phone and just let it sit - nothing installed or configured, no Google account set up or anything else
Yet, this morning I find from task manager that "Package installer" is running.
Why would Package installer start running on an unconfigured phone?
i don't think this will be helpful because I'm running a custom rom but mine is 4.1.1-eng. brandom.20121011.150203. Thats on rebelMOD rom

Running CR 4.5 Dev
Package Installer version 3.10.2216172425.... (it keeps going)
It would start running because you could side load apps still? I wouldnt worry about it

Superchip:
I agree. But I wasn't doing anything to prompt the system to think I wanted to side load something.
With the phone sitting at stock and using task manager, I have watched Package installer appear (run) disappear, and reappear a few hours later.
You're sure I shouldn't be concerned?
Butters and Joshua:
Thanks!
My stock device shows the same version as Butters.
However I note Josh's phone, and every other Android I've seen ... the Package installer usually shares the same version as the operating system.
Meaning, the anticipated version Butters and I are seeing should be v4.0.4.xxx
It would seem HTC is either using a custom version with internal versioning scheme, or they grabbed the Package installer from an old version of Android. HTC seems to approach their apps as if cooking jambalaya lol.

Okay this has been bugging me out for a week now, I can't seem to download the Chiltern Railway app on to my Vodafone Smart 858, (Huawei U8160) it says when I try to download it it just says my device is not compatible ???
I was running The smart Lucky rom with no problems and I used to have the app on my phone, but my mate thought it would be okay to find a better rom for the phone, he didn't back up any of my apps or files and just wiped the phone, he couldn't get any of the roms to work probably, So I went back to the smart lucky rom, and proceded to reinstall my apps from Google play,
I am now using the Custom Rom LegDroid CM7 U8160 which works really well, and says the os is now 2.3.7,
So I don't understand why I can't download this Chiltern railway App, it even says the minimum system needed is 2.1
Does anyone have any idea to why I can't download the App?
What if I just copied the apk file from a friends phone, would I be able to install the app then?
Any help would be great.
Thanks.
Here's a reference for installing apps with apk files:

Hello
So I have been attempting to download and install an app (Xstana Module) ever since I installed Lollipop. Its an xposed module, and even when I knew xposed was not available for Lollipop I still attempted to keep this app updated like the rest. However. I continue to get a -504 play store error (which I have followed the steps to fix, with no avail.)
I've attempted to install it manually through the xposed app, and even downloaded the app and attempted to install it and each try results in "App not installed." I'm kind of at a loss here. The only thing I have not tried is to sideload the app and thats because I haven't had the resources available to me yet.
Anyone have any idea?
I'm running on an HTC One M8 : Android Revolution HD 34.0 with H/k, Project Era, and Lyapotas Mod Pack.
Edit: Currently attempting to place in system/app
Edit2: That soft bricked my device.
Edit3: Fixed the soft brick, still no luck on the app.
Can a moderator please close this thread. I contacted the app developer.
Thread closed, thank you.
Is it possible to find the location where the OPO themes are stored? I'm on a rooted device
Just go to Play Store and you will find loads of themes.
I'm trying to extract a particular theme that I think came installed with my custom ROM, Ehndroix V. I may be wrong, since I didn't check the themes when I first got the phone
